Staff Backend Engineer, Tech Lead

We’re looking for a Staff Software Engineer to lead the design and evolution of Pulley’s core systems, powering our products that help founders navigate equity, fundraising, and startup operations. In this role, you’ll own the architecture and scalability of foundational backend services across domains like access control, audit trails, transaction systems, document generation, and cap table modeling. You’ll partner closely with product, infra, and design to translate complex workflows into reliable and composable APIs. This is a high-impact role for an engineer who loves deep system design, thrives in ambiguity, and wants to shape both how we build and what we build. You’ll guide the technical direction of the team, mentor engineers, and drive decisions that will define the long-term trajectory of Pulley’s platform.
